I'd like to know more. My partner and I were discussing how online bans are unjust and permanent now everywhere. Just feels weird when the Internet we grew up with basically anything went and bans were maybe hours. I get the motivation for it but also feels like the world didn't learn lessons thousands of years old as well.

It’s not that they couldn’t learn those lessons, it’s that the system makes learning those lessons a bad idea (in the short term).

It’s the same thing that happened with ‘08, etc. The market can stay irrational far longer than you can stay solvent, so in most cases it makes (short term) sense to just be irrational with everyone else.

Its with a different partner to my main one, one of the cheapest phone providers in Australia.

I simply signed up and scanned the QR code they gave me to set up the esim. In settings I have it turned off all the time to save battery and its only turned on if its needed to sign up for services.
